Seit gestern abend liegen wir nun neben SY Aud in der Prickley Bay vor Anker. Für heute abend ist ein Barbequ mit Lasse, Kris, Alex und Tom angesetzt und gerade kamen die Jungs von der norweg. KronprinzMaxi vorbei….die kommen dann mit uns im Anschluss an das Barbequ mit in die Tikibar…..welche ausweislich diverser fachkunbdiger Auskünfte an Freitagabenden recht gut besucht ist, wobei ein Großteil des Publikums aus Krankenschwesternschülerinnen der örtlichen Schwesternschule bestehen soll….well, we’ll see…sounds like fun. Achja…unser neues Crewmitglied Karsten hat uns für einen kleinen Ausflug an bord eines anderen Schiffes nach Antigua verlassen und wird am Sonntag auf Hog Island wieder zu uns stoßen….grad mit ihm geskyped…er hatte einen netten Törn an bord der 90fuss Yacht…..In diesem Sinne, Cheers Mates…

Regatta days in port Louis is probably not the best way to go relexing, albeit some good fun comes around easly… And also new friends, Lasse and Kristoffer on SY Aud have been hanging around Kira daily as she is in port and they are at anchor. Yesterday evening, someone decided that it whould be good fun to go back and forth on the front deck so Kira experienced a massive storm while she was on the ponton. The result; everything that was on the table in the cockpit smashed down and there was shards all around. We managed to save some rum but the price was costley, luckely we have a docktor onboard. We are now looking forward to go on anchor today or tomorrow, sailers life in ports is abit stressful… Cheers mates

Yesterday(sunday) was a blast, Tim, Sammy ( a nice bird from another sailboat) and me went for tubing down the river. Before we got into the water we had to test out the local Sunset Rum and some local beers which made us a bit tipsy and the drift more interesting. In the midle of the slopes we came into a banana plantation, green leafs everywhere and we all felt that we where as[…]
